Online Master's Degrees in Australia 2017.

Who the course is for
We’ve designed this course for students who do not already have a degree in law but who do have an economic, regulatory, compliance, public policy or other relevant background, and who are already working in or seeking to access the exciting and challenging career opportunities on offer in the global field of competition and consumer policy, law and enforcement.
If have a deep interest in the field or are looking to establish or advance your expertise and credentials in competition and consumer law - whether as a private practitioner, corporate advisor, compliance professional, public policy-maker, regulator or enforcement agency official, or member of a non-governmental organisation - this course is for you!

legal rules that govern market structures and conduct in major jurisdictions around the world – particularly the United States, European Union, and parts of the Asia-Pacific region
institutions that develop, administer and enforce competition and consumer policy and law
challenges that arise in enforcing and securing compliance with competition and consumer law

The Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation) perfectly addresses this gap in the Industrial Automation industry.
[+]

Online Master's Degrees in Australia 2017. he Engineering Institute of Technology is pleased to bring you the Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation)** program.
IN THIS ACCREDITED AND PRESTIGIOUS PROGRAM YOU WILL GAIN:
Skills and know-how in the latest and developing technologies in instrumentation, process control and industrial automation
Practical guidance and feedback from industrial automation experts from around the world
Live knowledge from the extensive experience of expert instructors, rather than from just theoretical information gained from books and college
Credibility and respect as the local industrial automation expert in your firm
Global networking contacts in the industry
Improved career choices and income
A valuable and accredited Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation)** qualification
INTRODUCTION
There is a critical global shortage of automation, instrumentation and control engineers due mainly to restructuring and rapid growth of new industries and technologies. The respected International Society of Automation (ISA) estimated that at least 15,000 new automation engineers are needed annually in the US alone. Many industrial automation businesses throughout the world comment on the difficulty in finding experienced automation engineers despite paying outstanding salaries.
The Master of Engineering (Industrial Automation) perfectly addresses this gap in the Industrial Automation industry. The program's twelve core units, and project thesis, provide you with the practical knowledge and skills required. Students with a background in electrical, mechanical, instrumentation and control, or industrial computer systems engineering can benefit from this program.
The content has been carefully designed to provide you with relevant concepts and the tools required in today’s fast-moving work environment. For example, Power Engineering covers major equipment and technologies used in power systems, including power generation, transmission and distribution networks. Programmable Logic Controllers covers in-depth principles of operation of programmable controllers, networking, distributed controllers, and program control strategies. Industrial Process Control Systems combines the process identification and feedback control design with a broad understanding of the hardware, system architectures and software techniques widely used to evaluate and implement complex control solutions. Industrial Instrumentation identifies key features of widely used measurement techniques and transducers combined with microprocessor devices to create robust and reliable industrial instruments. Process Engineering will enable students to evaluate and apply complex process calculations through application of control principles. Industrial Data Communications provides the requisite knowledge to manage modern field buses and industrial wireless systems. Safety Systems provides an introduction to the common safety philosophy of hazard identification, risk management and risk-based design of protection methods and functional safety systems. SCADA and DCS cover hardware and software systems, evaluation of typical DCS and SCADA systems and configuration of DCS controllers. Special Topics enable students to incorporate current technologies and the knowledge acquired from the entire course and thus solve complex Industrial Automation problems.
The Masters project, as the capstone of the course, requires a high level of personal autonomy and accountability, and reinforces the knowledge and skill base developed in the preceding subjects. As a significant research component of the course, this project will facilitate research, critical evaluation and the application of knowledge and skills with creativity and initiative, enabling students to critique current professional practice in the Industrial Automation industry.
COURSE FEES
What are the fees for my country?
The Engineering Institute of Technology (EIT) provides distance education to students located almost anywhere in the world – it is one of the very few truly global training institutes. Course fees are paid in a currency that is determined by the student’s location. A full list of fees in a currency appropriate for every country would be complex to navigate and, with today’s exchange rate fluctuations, difficult to maintain. Instead we aim to give you a rapid response regarding fees that is customised to your individual circumstances.
We understand that cost is a major consideration before a student commences study. For a rapid reply to your enquiry regarding courses fees and payment options, please enquire via the below button and we will respond within 2 business days.
